Chapter 1370
Just after Zang Xiong finished speaking, hundreds of soldiers he had urgently dispatched swarmed into the mine, pointing their guns at Hong Lie's men.
"Zang, Zang Xiong! Why is he here?"
Seeing Zang Xiong and his troops coming, Lu Tiankui and Lin Changbai both had stiff expressions, nervous and flustered.
Obviously, their arrangements were already very thorough! Which link leaked the news?
The two naturally did not expect that it was Ye Xiao who reported the news to Zang Xiong. At this time, they still thought that there was a spy among them, so that Zang Xiong arrived in time.
At this time, Ou Baisheng was completely relieved. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, secretly glad that he had invited Ye Xiao to the mine today. Otherwise, he would have been divided up by Lu Tiankui and others as fish on the chopping board.
The anxiety on Shangguan Qiuwei's face also dissipated a lot. Although the two sides are still in a confrontation, the situation is obviously in their favor.
She was worried about letting Ye Xiao face hundreds of guns alone, but now they also have guns, so Ye Xiao should not be injured.
After a brief moment of surprise, Hong Lie's eyes froze and he said sternly: "Zang Xiong, don't be too proud too early. Even if I die today, I will make you lose a piece of meat."
"At worst, you and I will go to war. Even if you can defeat my troops, you will definitely be seriously injured."
"Everyone listen carefully. As long as one person shoots at us, immediately convey the order. Our troops will launch an all-out attack on Zang Xiong's troops."
"And shoot at everyone present. If we are going to die, no matter who it is, kill one person and let them be buried with us."
Hong Lie knew very well that he must not show any weakness at this time, otherwise it would be a complete failure.
As for his later words, they were meant for Ou Baisheng, Lu Tiankui and other clan leaders of the three major families.
Especially Ou Baisheng, don't think that everything will be fine when Zang Xiong comes. If Hong Lie can't survive, there is no need for everyone here to live.
This will also allow the clan leaders of the three major families to stop Zang Xiong to the greatest extent and open fire while they are weak.
"Yes!"
The hundreds of soldiers brought by Hong Lie all shouted, and then turned their guns one by one, confronting Zang Xiong's troops and locking the clan leaders of the three major families.
The soldiers also knew their situation. If they insisted on resisting, they might still have a way to survive. If they were controlled by Zang Xiong, their end would be miserable.
Hearing Hong Lie's words, Ou Baisheng, Lu Tiankui and Lin Changbai were instantly uneasy. They didn't expect Hong Lie to do this.
So the three of them shouted to Zang Xiong one after another.
"General Zang Xiong, today's incident originated from Ou Baisheng, who brought people to blow up my gambling house and killed the sons of my Lu and Lin families. We were indeed ill-considered when we broke into the Ou family mine."
"But now we are willing to settle it privately with Ou Baisheng. Please calm down, General Zang Xiong, and don't make things worse."
Lu Tiankui said anxiously.
"General Zang Xiong, please put the overall situation first. I think General Hong Lie was also bewitched by Lu Tiankui. There is no need for you and General Hong Lie to fight for this matter. Let's sit down and talk!"
Ou Baisheng also hurriedly shouted to Zang Xiong.
Although he was eager to see Zang Xiong and Hong Lie, the two warlords riding on his head, fight to the death to weaken the strength of both sides.
But if he was implicated and became cannon fodder, Ou Baisheng would never want to see such a battle.
Ye Xiao also frowned slightly at this time. He was not worried about himself being affected, but worried about Shangguan Qiuwei.
Hong Lie was really cruel. If Zang Xiong was more ruthless, it might really break out and a chaotic fight between the two sides would break out.
However, Ye Xiao also saw through Zang Xiong's thoughts and determined that he would not choose to open fire at this time, but Zang Xiong would certainly not give up easily.
After all, Zang Xiong almost suffered a big loss. He would not step down without getting back some ground.
Ye Xiao guessed correctly. Zang Xiong was indeed a little hesitant at this time. He was unwilling to let Hong Lie go, but if he pushed Hong Lie too hard, a bloody battle would be inevitable.
As Hong Lie said, even if he defeated Hong Lie, after his vitality was seriously injured, he might be targeted by other warlords and squeezed out of the position of the first-tier warlord.
Just when Zang Xiong was silent and could not think of a good way to deal with this matter,
Ye Xiao suddenly spoke up, "General Zang Xiong, I have a suggestion that can not only settle the feud between the Ou family and the Lu Lin family, but also allow you and General Hong Lie to escape unscathed."
After hearing Ye Xiao's words,Almost all the key figures involved in this matter turned their eyes to Ye Xiao.
If Ye Xiao said this at the beginning, he would definitely be despised by Lu Tiankui, Lin Changbai and even Hong Lie, because they did not believe that Ye Xiao had such ability.
But now the three of them dared not underestimate Ye Xiao anyway, and they all hoped that the proposal from Ye Xiao would really have such an effect.
Hearing this, Zang Xiong pursed his lips and smiled: "Mr. Ye, why don't you tell me!"
Although Zang Xiong was not completely convinced by Ye Xiao, he just used Ye Xiao as a handy tool, but Ye Xiao held Hong Lie's life in his hands at this time, so he naturally could not ignore Ye Xiao's words.
Ye Xiao continued, "Since this turmoil was started by the feud between the Lu and Lin families and the Ou family, and neither side can convince the other, why not use the gambling stone popular in the Jade Country to decide!"
"Within one hour, each side will send someone to select this ore field and gamble on the raw stones mined. If the raw stones selected by one side have a higher total value of jade, that side will be judged to be right."
"If Mr. Ou loses, he will take out one of his mines. If the Lu and Lin families lose, they will cancel the lawsuit against Mr. Ou and each take out 5 billion Dragon Country currency."
"And no matter which side wins, half of the bet must be given to you, General Zang Xiong. After the gambling is over, General Zang Xiong and General Hong Lie, you will withdraw your troops."
"General Zang Xiong and everyone, what do you think?"
After Ye Xiao finished speaking, everyone in the field concentrated on thinking.
Regarding Ye Xiao's proposal, Lu Tiankui and Lin Changbai felt that this was too far from the benefits they could have originally gained, and there were certain risks, but they were not unacceptable.
In the current situation, they might not even be able to save their lives, so how could they dare to expect to succeed as planned and obtain 80% of the Ou family's mineral veins.
Moreover, the gambling stone plan proposed by Ye Xiao had a large factor of luck, and they were not without hope of winning.
Ou Baisheng's idea was also different from the two. If he did not follow Ye Xiao's proposal, Zang Xiong and Hong Lie would open fire, and even if he did not die, he would have to waste half of his life.
If he agreed, he would pay the price of a mineral vein at most, and this was not absolute, because he still had the possibility of winning.
"Mr. Ye, your proposal is good, I agree!" After thinking for a while, Zang Xiong said with a smile.
He was undoubtedly the person who benefited the most from this gambling game. He either got half of the jade vein or 5 billion Dragon Country currency. No matter how you look at it, he gained face, and it was also a step for him to withdraw his troops.
Therefore, Zang Xiong had no reason to refuse.
After Lu Tiankui and Lin Changbai looked at each other, they responded: "Brother Changbai and I also agree."
Ou Baisheng also nodded immediately, "I agree too."
Hong Lie didn't say anything, but he didn't object, which meant he agreed.
Although he didn't get any benefit from it, no matter what the result of the gambling game was, his life was at least not in danger.
Moreover, he was originally at a disadvantage. If the two sides started fighting, he would definitely be the first to die, and now at most he would lose a little face, so he didn't need to object to Ye Xiao's proposal.
Seeing that Hong Lie also acquiesced to his proposal, Ye Xiao loosened his hand that was pinching Hong Lie's neck.
Then he spoke again: "Mr. Ou, I will participate in the gambling on your behalf. As for Mr. Lu and Mr. Lin, you can discuss who to send out to gamble!"
